hypergeometric distribution

hypergeometric distribution
/huy"peuhr jee'euh me"trik, huy'-/, Math.
a system of probabilities associated with finding a specified number of elements, as 5 white balls, from a given number of elements, as 10 balls, chosen from a set containing 2 kinds of elements of known quantity, as 15 white balls and 20 black balls.
